The Ile-Oluji youths in Ondo State under the aegis of Oijefon Youth Council has strongly condemned the public assault and infringement of fundamental human rights perpetrated against Elder Abraham Areola JP, a respected member of our community, Ile-Oluji in Ondo State.
The youths said they are compelled to speak against the act of man’s inhuman to man melted against our indigene resident in Orile-Ifo, Ogun State by Mr. Semiu Adewale Ogunjobi, the suspended Olorile of Orile-Ifo in Ogun State.
In a statement signed and made available to newsmen in Ile-Oluji, the headquarters of Ile-Oluji-Okeigbo local government area by the president of Oijefon Youth Council, Engr. Adedokun Adeyemi Adeyonu says proper investigation must be carried out while perpetrators must be accountable for their actions.
“We condemn this behavior in the strongest possible terms as it does not only violates the rights and dignity of Elder Abraham Areola JP but also undermines the values of respect, tolerance, and human rights that our community holds dearly”.
“While we thank the Ogun State Government for its swift action, we urge relevant authorities to take further action to investigate this incident, ensure justice is served and prevent such occurrences in future”.
“It is our collective responsibility to safeguard the rights and well-being of all members of our community, particularly our elders and vulnerable individuals”.
“As young people, we are committed to promoting cultural values, mutual respect, inclusivity, and social justice. We will continue to advocate for the protection of human rights and the dignity of all individuals, regardless of their background, age, or social status”.
“We stand in solidarity with Elder Abraham Areola JP and his family and we demand that justice be served”, the statement concluded.
